Chapter 99 Regret
"Captain, if you don't go to eat, my wife asked me to send some food over for you to try. Here, sister-in-law."
Seeing him about to leave, Shen Yulan stopped him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Don't leave yet, I'll give you the bowl back."
When he heard that it was a bowl, Lu Yuxiu stopped walking, and seeing that his sister-in-law still wanted to wash it, he hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, don't wash it, just leave it like that, my wife is waiting for me to come home for dinner."
Shen Yulan wanted to clean it for him, but after hearing what he said, she smiled and said, "Then go back quickly and thank your wife for me."
"Okay, sister-in-law."
After Lu Yuxiu left, Shen Yulan turned around and saw her husband and children staring at the bowl of braised pork with potatoes.
She smelled it just now when she changed the bowl, the fragrance was very tempting.
Sitting back at the table, Shen Yulan said, "Eat!"
Captain Zhou took a bite of the braised pork, which melted in his mouth with a rich meaty aroma, and even the lean meat did not get stuck in his teeth.
Zhou Haiyang took a bite of meat, his eyes lit up, he lowered his head and ate rapidly, and he spoke less.
After taking two bites and seeing that the children liked it, Captain Zhou stopped eating the meat and turned to eat the buns. The more he ate, the more his brows furrowed.
Shen Yulan looked up at her husband's face and thought the buns were not tasty. They were white buns! How could they not taste good?
Confused, she picked up the bun and took a bite. When she tasted the taste in her mouth, Shen Yulan became more and more confused.
"This bun is so delicious, why are you frowning?"
"Oh!" Captain Zhou took a bite of the bun and sighed heavily.
Even Zhou Haiyang and Haiyan, who were eating with their heads down, raised their heads and looked at him, wondering why he was sighing while eating such delicious food.
Zhou Haiyang reached out, picked up the bun and took a bite. He almost regretted it. He almost missed the bun.
When Zhou Haiyan saw her brother's expression, she immediately picked up a bun.
"I regret it! I regret not agreeing to go out for dinner!" The more he thought about it, the more he regretted it. If the braised pork and buns were so delicious, then the other dishes must be delicious too. Thinking of this, he wished he could turn back time.
"You deserve it! I told you to be so arrogant!" Shen Yulan smiled slightly when she heard it.
When the two children heard this, their eyes widened. How happy they would be if this was a table full of delicious food!
Dajun and Xiaojun, who were sitting at the table, had exactly the same idea. Looking at the table full of dishes, they were drooling with greed.
When Lu Yuxiu returned home, the grilled fish in the pot was just finished.
Lin Xia asked Lu Yuxiu to help serve the dishes. There were eight dishes at home plus the three dishes brought by Mrs. Yang, so the table was full.
Seeing that all the people sitting outside were grown men, Yang Hongmei hesitated and whispered to Lin Xia in the kitchen, "Why don't I just eat something in the kitchen."
Hearing this, Lin Xia spread her hands and said, "There's nothing to eat in the kitchen."
She doesn't have the habit of leaving leftovers. Even the pickled vegetables at home are not ready yet, and all the dishes prepared today are outside.
"What are you afraid of? Sister-in-law, let's go out and sit together." Lin Xia never had the idea that women couldn't sit at the table. That big table of dishes outside were all cooked by her. She worked hard for an entire afternoon, and now she wasn't allowed to sit at the table?
Not to mention others, she believed that Lu Yuxiu would not do such a thing.
"I'm afraid this is not a good idea, right?"
Seeing that she was still a little hesitant, Lin Xia took Yang Hongmei's arm and went out.
As soon as the two arrived in the living room, they saw Lu Yuxiu turn sideways and point to the seat next to Wu Deye, saying, "Sister-in-law, come and sit down. We're waiting for you."
The two looked over and saw Wu Deye holding his daughter in his arms with an empty seat next to him. Dajun and Xiaojun had already become familiar with everyone and were sitting among the group.
An An sat next to Lu Yuxiu. There was an empty seat next to An An. Everyone looked over, but no one picked up their chopsticks. It was obvious that they were waiting for the two people to come.
Lin Xia looked at Yang Hongmei and smiled, her eyes seemed to say, see, there's nothing wrong with it.
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Yang Hongmei felt a little embarrassed and walked away quickly.
Lin Xia sat down next to An An, and seeing that everyone was still looking at her, she smiled softly and said, "Everyone, help yourself to eat, and you'd better help me finish it all, so there won't be any leftovers."
"Sister-in-law, you said this!"
"Sister-in-law, what you said is very generous!"
"I guarantee to complete the task!" Someone saluted mischievously, making everyone laugh.
Lin Xia was amused and laughed. When she turned around, she saw the man staring at her with deep eyes. She felt a little embarrassed by his stare and asked softly, "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
"No, thank you for your hard work."
In a place where no one could see, he gently held Lin Xia's hand.
"Mom, I want to eat that." An An sat between his parents. Even though there were a bunch of uncles he didn't know in front of him, he felt very safe.
The two loosened their holding hands, Lin Xia raised a smile and helped the little guy to pick up the braised pork.
"What else do you want?"
"That~" The little hand pointed at the crab. She still remembered eating the big red one before.
Lu Yuxiu helped her pick up a crab, removed the shell and the inedible parts, and then let her eat it.
"Thank you, Dad~"
Because they don't drink, there is no scene of urging others to drink or toast. However, it is also too quiet, with the only sound being An An's request for food to be served.
The big army and the small army were eating so much that they were no longer able to speak. Every time they ate a dish, they found it delicious in a different way!
Anyone who has eaten the braised pork can’t help but sigh in their heart!
This meat is so delicious!
They are at the seaside, where seafood is not expensive, so compared to seafood, they are more craving for meat.
When the dishes were served, they all set their eyes on the braised pork. They were so greedy that everyone ate the braised pork, but no one was interested in the pineapple sweet and sour pork.
Seeing that the braised pork was almost finished, but no one touched the sweet and sour pork with pineapple, Lin Xia became curious. Did she fail?
The reason why no one moved was that they had never seen anyone stir-fry fruit and meat together, and they were all afraid to try it.
It was such a coincidence that no one here was from Guangcheng, otherwise they would have recognized that this was a traditional Guangcheng dish.
Everyone wanted to try but didn't dare to. They were all comrades-in-arms, and they understood each other with just a glance.
They were going to find a pioneer! Let him try it first, and then they exchanged glances.
The lucky guy who was pushed out had no idea that he was the guinea pig. He was thinking, they came to my sister-in-law's house for dinner, they couldn't leave a dish untouched.
The lucky guy was nervous and prepared to swallow the food without changing his expression no matter how bad it tasted.
Before he put the sweet and sour pork into his mouth, he had no idea how tragic his expression was. The other bad guys were secretly observing his expression. If it was unpalatable, they would be ready to finish it with a few chopsticks each, so as to complete the task of finishing the plate assigned by Lin Xia.
The sweet and sour pork has a crispy outer skin, rich gravy inside, and the sauce on the outside is sweet and sour with the fragrance of pineapple.
The lucky guy's eyes lit up and he took another piece of pineapple. The sweet and sour taste immediately refreshed his taste buds and made him more appetizing.
After seeing his expression, several people rushed forward without even having time to exchange secret signals.
Lin Xia had just finished a piece of fish with chopsticks, and when she looked up again, she found that the sweet and sour pork that had been ignored just now was already finished. Even the last piece of pineapple in it had been taken away in her sight.
Lin Xia looked over and saw a silly smile on her dark face. She said a little embarrassedly, "Sister-in-law, what is this dish? I thought it was cooked wrong, but I didn't expect that meat and pineapple together are quite delicious!"
